Costing for a possible marina berth there is a bit of a ballance up as we would spend less on fuel, particularly being a gas free boat. Electricity in Mercia is only about 12p per kwh, bargainJameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160157609225841854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-939355145882154035.post-37397711738603315152014-01-10T08:31:01.753+00:002014-01-10T08:31:01.753+00:00Have you had this email from CRT?

They are supposed to have sent it to every boater currently in the Birmingham area but the BCNS are passing it around as lots of their members haven't been included. It might be of interest to you - and there's a free buffet :-) <br /><br />The Canal & River Trust’s chief executive, Richard Parry, is hosting a series of open meetings for boaters and other waterway users. The meetings are a good chance to informally air views or have a chat with Richard about any local or national issues.<br /> <br />I would like to invite you to come along to the meeting from 6pm on Thursday 23 January in Birmingham. The meeting will take place at The Bond, 180 - 182 Fazeley Street, Digbeth, Birmingham, B5 5SE, and a light buffet will be provided. The meeting is expected to last for a couple of hours. We are sending these invitations to boaters living or currently cruising in the Birmingham area and, while everyone is very welcome, Richard is particularly keen to reach boaters who don’t normally go to user groups or other meetings with the Trust and have not had the chance to talk to us face to face.<br /> <br />Please email me if you would like to come along, and please do feel free to extend the invitation to other boaters who may be interested. I hope you can make it.<br /> <br />Kind regards,<br /> <br />Fran Read<br />Yvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00706326534368548443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-939355145882154035.post-54241648572932062362014-01-09T11:05:27.398+00:002014-01-09T11:05:27.398+00:00Great post.
